Nancy Keenan (born February 14, 1952) is the former president of the United States-based abortion rights organization NARAL Pro-Choice America (NARAL). She served as president from 2004-2013. The Montana Democratic Party announced Keenan would take over as its executive director, effective April 20, 2015.[1]

Keenan became president of NARAL Pro-Choice America in 2004.[6] As president, Keenan advocated for access to abortion, but she has also attempted to change the nature of the debate around abortion rights issues in the United States. For example, in 2006, she said that while pro-choice and pro-life people don't agree on abortion "we should be able to agree that we can reduce unintended pregnancies" by (as a NARAL ad stated) "guaranteeing women's access to birth control, including the 'morning-after' pill, making sure our kids receive honest, realistic sex education, and increasing support for family-planning services."[7] In a speech presented on the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, Keenan asked supporters to acknowledge "a woman's right to choose is a morally complex issue, and a lot less black and white than it’s been made out to be." She discussed the pro-choice position in terms of moral values.[8][9] She reiterated the position that reducing unintended pregnancy is a "core moral value" in her speech at the 2008 Democratic National Convention.[10] On August 22, 2012, it was announced that she would be a speaker at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina.[11]
